About the Role
I’m looking to bring on a massage therapist to join my physical therapy and performance business, Reps&Recover. We work primarily with active adults and athletes—people who train hard and want to move better, recover faster, and stay healthy long term.
This is not a spa setting. Most of our clients are coming in with a purpose—whether that’s getting out of pain, improving mobility, or recovering between training sessions.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Providing sports and deep tissue massage
- Working with clients dealing with tightness, mobility limitations, or past/current injuries
- Collaborating with me (PT) on shared clients when appropriate
- Helping clients understand what’s going on in their body and how to stay ahead of issues
- Option to incorporate tools like cupping, scraping, or stretching if that’s part of your skillset
Who This Is a Good Fit For
- You enjoy working with active people or athletes
- You like a more clinical or performance-based environment
- You’re confident in your hands-on skills and communication
- You want to grow a consistent client base (not just fill random appointments)
Requirements:
- Active Illinois Massage Therapy License
Nice to Have (not required):
- Experience with sports massage or rehab settings
- Familiarity with cupping, IASTM, or assisted stretching
Schedule & Pay
- Flexible hours (evenings and/or weekends are ideal)
- Contractor position (1099)
- Pay based on session or percentage split (we can discuss what makes sense based on experience)
Why This Opportunity Is Different
- You’ll get referrals directly from a physical therapy caseload
- You’ll be working inside a gym environment with motivated clients
- There’s room to build something long-term here, not just pick up extra hours
Job Types: Part-time, Contract
Pay: $45.00 - $70.00 per hour
Benefits:
- Continuing education credits
- Flexible schedule
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Northbrook, IL 60062
